As the year draws to a close, I would like to take a moment to reflect on the incredible achievements and experiences we’ve shared as a school community. This year has been filled with opportunities for growth, resilience, and connection, and I am immensely proud of our students, staff, and families for their unwavering commitment and support.
To our students, your dedication to learning and personal growth has been inspiring. Whether through academic excellence, sporting achievements, artistic performances, or acts of kindness, you have demonstrated the values that make Orara High School a truly exceptional place. Living the Orara Way—being safe, respectful, and inclusive—has shone through in all that we do, and I thank you for upholding these values.
To our staff, thank you for your tireless efforts to nurture, educate and inspire. Your passion and professionalism have made a significant impact on the lives of our students.
To our families and broader community, your partnership and support have been invaluable. Together, we’ve created a welcoming and inclusive environment where every student feels a sense of belonging and pride.
As we look ahead to the new year, I encourage everyone to take time over the holiday season to relax, recharge, and celebrate the joys of family and friendship. We look forward to welcoming you back in 2025, refreshed and ready for another year of learning and growth.
Wishing you all a safe and happy holiday season.
Warm regards,
Laura McRae
Principal
